If you are interested in algorithms and mathematical theory, the quite extensive write-up by Michael Winter himself about a lot of tiles (trivial scan) is a must-read. If not, you’ll soon find yourself quite overwhelmed, possibly bored and most likely thinking less of the piece featured today.

Yes, it is easy to over-explain art and the process behind. a lot of tiles (trivial scan) is an excellent piece of esoterica. There’s a sense of algorithm, there is a sense of non-linear, but constant, structure - a sense of a system. There is no need to dwell into theory and mathematics; the composition speaks for itself.

By no means does this mean that Michael Winter’s write-up is to be criticized. However, it should be read at another time. That is to say, post-listening to the actual composition itself. Post-quite-a-time-afterwards-listening. Or perhaps even more importantly: it should be read as a subject, separate from the object itself.
